[(OOC: This post contains some Hymmnos font, it can be found here, but it is not necessary as the english writing for it is also provided, but it helps aesthetically. If you choose not to get it, you'll simply see the english writing for it twice. Aurica will be able to use the language from this point on, so expect more of it in the future.)]
♪ BGM: Azure Sky (R)
Wow... this is the tower.
[There was only so much that could be said about it — Aurica recieved two packages in the mail this weekend, and finally decided to make use of their contents after a lot of thought. The tower took up a good chunk of the backyard, stretching as high as her neck could bend. But it was a lot shorter than she was used to. What happened?
She went to the large door and looked over it, puzzled for a moment. Then remembering, she held out a hand to it.]
exec bansh dand ar noes
Exec bansh dand ar noes.
(Command: Open the door for me.)
[Electronic images began to appear in front of Aurica's hand, as if they were holographic images and windows, full of code and text. The tower sounded some noises, and then another hologram appeared, this time of a person.]
FFT Spectrum authorization confirmed. Aurica Nestmile. [The hologram smiled, as if remembering her. Aurica smiled back, glad to see Meimei again.] Code verified. You are authorized to proceed. Good day.
[The holograms all disappeared, while the door shuddered and cracked open, the two halves moving into the sides of the tower. She moved inside and the doors closed behind her. The interior wasn't well-lit aside from the light at the top, and in the place of metal holdings and shuttles, a simple stairway led up. She carefully made her way though, until about halfway there was a crystal platform in the middle of the floor.
..Oh right, the tower is split in half, isn't it?
Aurica tested the platform, and began to shimmer in a light, suddenly whisked away to the next floor. She climbed more stairs after that, before coming to another clearing, this time with two large pods, a telescope, and a ladder. Not thinking much of the other two, she took to the last item and scaled it, finding herself outside.
From the top, the Rinkernator Observatory, she could see out for blocks. It amazed her, never being able to see such a view before. It made her smile, taking a moment to herself.]
It's beautiful. I've been to space itself on this before, but this looks so great even so.
[Still, she had a duty to do. She cleared her throat, and began to focus.
Shurelia-sama, you always wanted a break from being an Administrator, didn't you?
This was the place of rebirth, the changing of the guard that never happened before in Ar tonelico's history. Now its true purpose would be realized. It was time to take the role, herself. Meanwhile, the tower itself awaited her voice, the only one it was going to recognize at this point.
And so, she took upon herself both of their muted requests.]

[On this Sunday afternoon, a tower will suddenly appear in the backyard of 458 Stone Street. Even if you don't notice or care about the tower, a sound will be heard from it a few minutes later, a song that might have a slight calming effect. It reaches for many, many blocks, the voice amplified by the tower's structure. It is up to you if you can hear it, though, as you could just be way too far away to hear it clearly or properly.]
♫ BGM: RE=NATION (Lyrics)
Negawakuba, kono uta wo, yobikikase, tamae,
(Please, listen and receive this song,)
yuruku fuku, akatsuki no, kaze to narite;
(that becomes the lazy wind of the dawn;)
Madoromu inochi, kooreru, yume ni,
(Please, release the drifting and lost people,)
tadayohite mayoeru hito tokihanachi tamae...
(whose sleeping lives are still in frozen dreams....)
[There is silence for many seconds, as if whoever is singing it is hesitant to continue. The tower's features then glow alight, its operation beginning and the voice returning just as serenely and vibrant.]
Amatsutahi kuru tori wa, futata ni, tada mukafu.
(The birds that are flying together with the sky go towards the sunlight.)
Shiro ni azayagu tsubasa, saki ni, kibou no asu, tsutaete.
(The white and shining wings are announcing a hopeful tomorrow to the future.)
Was yea ra waath near en hymme RE=NATION mea.
Was yea ra waath near, en hymme RE=NATION mea.
(I'm very happy to sing my song of rebirth for a life.)
[The singing continues like this for a few minutes longer. If you're near enough or have decided to come check it out, the tower will look much like this, but not nearly so big and the greenery at the base is missing. The top half is denser than shown here, with it resembling more like a castle tower, as well as an observatory at the top floor where Aurica will be. The height looks to be about 10-20 floors tall, roughly. A long antenna at the top of the observatory marks the structure much taller, however.
In the greenery's place on the bottom, A large door with carved markings much like a Sumerian script or structure looked can be found, but no useful way to access it will be apparent at first. The only ways to interact at this point would be to either:
A.) Try to get her attention at the top of the tower, or
B.) Wait for her to come back down after the song finishes. We can handwave the interim if you prefer!
C.) Alternatively, you can try your hand at the door anyway, or just observe the tower if you're inclined to technology you haven't seen before.]

...but even she can hear the beautiful song she sings. She patiently waits until the song is finished before she attempts conversation.)
...that was a really pretty song, Aurica.
A
A
Is this your tower, Aurica? It's really big!
A
[She takes the moment to grab Chen into a hug, since she's really happy for once.]
Yes! Well, it is now anyway. It used to be a lot bigger, though.
A
It's really pretty...and really high up!
So if you have your own tower, does that make you a princess?
(Someone got into the Western Fairy Tales section of the library...)
A
It's still rather tall, yes. But it doesn't seem to be any trouble for you.
A
A
[She takes this time to cuddle Chen close.] Ne, Chen, I never really apologized about what happened before. I just couldn't believe I was really back. I'm sorry.
A
That's okay! Mayfield does a lot of confusing things. From what I've heard, it brought a lot of people back after the carnival left.
I don't know what happens when someone gets permanently droned, but I did miss you.
A
I was back in my world for a few months. It's amazing that a whole year passed for everyone here, really.
A
So how was it back home? Was it nice seeing your friends again?
A
[... Home. She hadn't really willingly thought about it. Notably, her smile shortens into a wistful look. Still holding Chen, she looks up to the sky.
Lyner, Radolf, Claire, Ayatane, Krusche, Jack, Misha, Shurelia... even that person they fought against. Sure, Aurica could call them friends, but one among them was whom she truly cared about. To her relief, she came back that night, the same night they were to make Phantasmagoria. It was her one, single goal to get out of Mayfield, to see Lyner with her present before everyone parted ways the next day. Before he could get snatched away by one of the other girls.]
...It was nice, yes. I wanted to live my life making music boxes. I set up a shop in a small forest village, er well, tried to. It was a little rough, but it was.. nice, being there again. I met someone very important to me there before.
A
A
Yes, I did. I was still trying to learn how to make different kinds, but it's hard and takes a long time the way I do it.
Maybe one day I can make some for you! You'll be a regular at my "Handmade Music Boxes - Fluffy Fuzzy Brain Happy" shop, right?
[Yes, she did name her orgel shop that.]
A
That sounds wonderful! I want to be a regular; it sounds so fluffy!
